I can still see my dreams above where we spent our perfect love, but there's little I can do. In the desert that I wander in my glass cage, separated from oasis's we knew, I stagger chasing sweet mirages, on paths that lead me to lost causes, when it comes to loving you. Chorus- This hole in my soul just keeps draining any hopes that you will come back to me, cause you're stuck in your own hour glass containing, all escape as well from your misery. I know in my heart that you still love me and that's the only chance that offers a key.. only love will grant us passes through our lonely hourglasses, restoring all those dreams we know were meant to be. Bridge- Let's turn our sorrows upside down, before it's too late and we drown in the remnants of a love that's fading fast, build me a tower in the sand, be my Rapunzel, I'm the man who will rescue you with true love that will last. Chorus- Before this hole in our souls has finished draining any hopes that you will come back to me, and we're left stuck in our own hour glass containing, all escape as well from our sheer misery. Cause I know in my heart that you still love me and that's the only chance that offers a key.. only love will grant us passes through our lonely hourglasses, restoring all those dreams we know were meant to be.... restoring all those dreams we've lost....eternally.

Just Plain Quotes

"If someone is truly a jerk, or truly is not deserving of any positive reply from you, polite indifference is the best response you can give. Do not insult. Do not slam. Do not follow the urge to be nasty. Simply be politely indifferent." –Brian Austin Whitney
